为了便于说明,我有一个简单的Employee类,其中包含几个字段和一个删除Certifications
属性中多次出现的方法
public int EmployeeId { get; set; }
public string FirstName { get; set; }
public string LastName { get; set; }
private List<string> certifications = new List<string>();
public List<string> Certifications
{
get { return certifications; }
set { certifications = value; }
}
public List<string> RemoveDuplicates(List<string> s)
{
List<string> dupesRemoved = s.Distinct().ToList();
foreach(string str in dupesRemoved)
Console.WriteLine(str);
return dupesRemoved;
}
RemoveDuplicates方法将删除Employee对象的Certifications属性中的任何重复字符串。现在考虑我是否有一个Employee对象列表。
Employee e = new Employee();
List<string> stringList = new List<string>();
stringList.Add("first");
stringList.Add("second");
stringList.Add("third");
stringList.Add("first");
e.Certifications = stringList;
// e.Certifications = e.RemoveDuplicates(e.Certifications); works fine
Employee e2 = new Employee();
e2.Certifications.Add("fourth");
e2.Certifications.Add("fifth");
e2.Certifications.Add("fifth");
e2.Certifications.Add("sixth");
List<Employee> empList = new List<Employee>();
empList.Add(e);
empList.Add(e2);
我可以用
foreach (Employee emp in empList)
{
emp.Certifications = emp.RemoveDuplicates(emp.Certifications);
}
从列表中的所有员工那里获取所有唯一认证的列表,但我想在LINQ中执行此操作,类似于
stringList = empList.Select(emp => emp.Certifications.Distinct().ToList());
这给我一个错误说
Cannot implicitly convert type 'System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<System.Collections.Generic.List<string>>' to 'System.Collections.Generic.List<string>'. An explicit conversion exists (are you missing a cast?)
如何从Employee对象列表中获取唯一认证列表?
答案 0 :(得分:21)
如果我理解,您需要列出所有员工中的所有独特认证。这将是SelectMany的工作:
var uniqueCerts = empList.SelectMany(e => e.Certifications).Distinct().ToList();
答案 1 :(得分:3)
您想使用SelectMany,它允许您选择子列表,但以平面形式返回它们:
stringList = empList.SelectMany(emp => emp.Certifications).Distinct().ToList();
答案 2 :(得分:0)
您可以尝试使用SelectMany扩展程序吗?
var employeeCertifications = (from e in employeeList select e.Certifications).SelectMany(x => x).Distinct();
答案 3 :(得分:0)
如果要为变量设置类型,请尝试使用Select()
:
List<string> employeeCertifications =
employeeList.Select(e => e.Certifications).Distinct().ToList();
